So we asked you to pick a song to represent Madonna in the upcoming Artist Forum contest. You nominated songs, voted for them and now we have RESULTS woop.

Gang Bang [ 5 ] ** [22.73%]
Sky Fits Heaven [ 4 ] ** [18.18%]
Devil Pray [ 2 ] ** [9.09%]
Devil Wouldn't Recognise You [ 2 ] ** [9.09%]


It was very close at the start but the MDNA tracks pulled ahead and we're left with the winner as...

I'm Addicted [ 9 ] ** [40.91%]





Start playing it on repeat, it will need your votes when the contest opens!

This isn't my favourite song of the 5 we had to choose from but I do think it's the one that was most undeservedly left as album track. It shouldn't have just been a single, it should've been the LEAD single because it introduces the album perfectly. Good choice Buzzjack!

I'm the same. Not quite my favourite but still definitely a brilliant track that balances the dance style of the time and Madonna's own stamp. Quite possibly my favourite from MDNA - either it or 'Gang Bang', then 'Love Spent', 'Masterpiece', 'Beautiful Killer' and 'Best Friend' are up there too.

Those are my picks from MDNA too. It's only really 'B'Day Song' that I properly LOATHE the rest are decent/fantastic.

I legit have a special spot for 'B'Day Song' in my heart. Under no circumstances should it have been on the album though, not even as a deluxe track.

Did the cross forum battle thing happen?

Posted by: HausofTravis 2nd October 2016, 07:05 PM

Do you mean the actual contest? It's still yet to start! Taking ages I know but should be a lot of fun when it does kick in.

Posted by: dandy* 2nd October 2016, 07:12 PM

Yes I did mean that... I just remembered about it and assumed I'd missed it completely. Still, glad I haven't and can't wait to throw my support behind Madonna Darius!

The original deadline was 30th September (pushed forward if all AFs had already settled on a song) but there's one AF still to send in a song, so the deadline has been extended by a couple of days, but essentially we should see the next round starting this week (I believe it is being held in the Girls Aloud forum as it was the mods there who came up with the idea).

Final results~ Not brilliant but not bad!

Been meaning to comment on this. I'd hoped for much better but I appreciate that perhaps it was the wrong choice to put forward (I also realise it's quite hypocritical of me to say that when I was backing it being put forward! ). I know I certainly was thinking too much on the lines of specifically "should have been a single" and "what would have made a far better choice than what we got" rather than, more simply, "best album track". Ah well, lessons learned!
